Disclaimer Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 It's shaped like a ring, and looks like it fits over my cockWait, did I buy the wrong clamp?Did you get the 5 pack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 i dont mess with any rings or clamps i take everything out and install bolts,nutz and washers. i have only had one that i couldnt get fixed so far and that board was so warped it was crazy, he said he had done the towel trick to it once or twice before so im pretty sure thats why i couldnt get it fixed. my method cost about $2.50 to fix them...

InyaAzz Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Did you get the 5 pack?You're being modest.i dont mess with any rings or clamps i take everything out and install bolts,nutz and washers. i have only had one that i couldnt get fixed so far and that board was so warped it was crazy, he said he had done the towel trick to it once or twice before so im pretty sure thats why i couldnt get it fixed. my method cost about $2.50 to fix them...The ring was a joke...I just have an x clamp...and new screws and washers. The clamp is just added security.I'm off to go tear it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InyaAzz Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Re baking this bitch now. First attempt...it started..then froze..and now RRoD. It's cooling down and I should know in a few minutes. I might have to play with the tightness of the screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 yeah its all about the torque, u didnt plug the fan in when u rebaked it did u? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 The first time, no. The second time, I had the fan sitting on top of the CPU. Third time, I removed the MB and adjusted the screws, and going for another round without fan...wash rinse repeat. I still have a small amount of hope seeing as it booted (but froze) the first two times...before giving 3 lights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 you wnat it to red light with 3 lights the first time and leave it on till it goes to 2 lights (should take a few mins) with out the fan on. then plug the fan in and see if it works. repeat till it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 The second method I tried was the 'alternate method'. I'm recleaning and applying paste and starting from scratch. I'll give your method a try first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 I think I confused myself?!?1This is what I did the first time...Removed fan, plugged everything in..got 3 lights...and waited for 2. Ran it for 2 mins then shut it down. Took mb out and torqued screws. Put it back together and fired it up. Success...I thought. Xbox froze after trying to boot.Second bake was running one fan over CPU so 360 wouldn't shut down with two lights...ran that for 15 mins then let cool for 15 mins. No go.Doing the exact same thing this time...except I reapplied paste. I may have had too little on there the first time...in my attempt to not put too much. We'll see. It seems to have taken longer to go to 2 lights from three this time (getting ready to shut it down and tighten the screws down and let it cool).

4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 it should work then this time if it took longer. i usually go in 1/4 turns from a finger tight start point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InyaAzz Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 I'm talking to myself now..Must be how the case is attached to the MB? I take the grey side panels and the front panel off...and it works. Gonna try to loosen the cage screws and see if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Working now....loosened the screws up. Drink time!!I'm gonna let it run all night just to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1crusher Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Had a few minor issues fixing the xbox...have it cooking right now so we'll see how long it will last IF it comes back. If not it's off to WallyWorld to pickup a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Well...so far so good. Cooked it for almost an hour, shut it down and reassembled it completely. Hooked it back up and worked like it should so we'll see how long it holds up. I'm up for some gaming if anyone is on this evening. Just send a friend request to TG r1crusher.
